Is it head first or feet first?







Either way, here it goes... I'm jumping in. After a long time of wishing and dreaming, I'm finally starting my own blog! First off, welcome and thanks for visiting. Secondly, let me introduce myself. My name is Jamie and I was born, bred and raised in the midwest. I grew up a bit of tomboy and really, I won't kid myself, I still am. Somewhere along the way I did find my girly side. None the less, my mom always said I was born in the wrong era. I believe her. Maybe it's a past life I'm reliving or just a connection to the past, but I love old things. It's the nostalgia that gets me. Some of my favorite memories growing up involve me searching for vintage "treasures". Whether it was hitting the garage sales around Green Lake with my mom or scouring the bed of my grandpa's pickup after a day at an auction, I've always enjoyed searching for and finding a hidden treasure. Part of the excitement comes from the untold story of an item. Where has it been? Who's owned it? And most importantly, what am I adding to its story? So here I am, writing my own story. From found hidden treasures to current projects I'm working on, it's a mosaic of anything that serves as an inspiration to whomever feels the need to be inspired. Enjoy.
